    They don't have excuses. They didn't pitch well. My problem was why bring them in when you've got 2 guys who desperately need work?

    Huge difference between a bullpen session and in-game work. LOADS of difference.

    They suck. Why was Dusty using Logan Ondrusek in a high levarage situation?

    Why haven't Chapman and Broxton pitched in a week? It's ridiculous.

    This baseball team, with very few exceptions, is playing like absolute trash right now. My heart is so invested in them that this is excruciating to watch.

    Because there's nobody else in the pen! Should he have brought Broxton in last inning?

    Drink every time the announcers mention Broxton hasn't pitched in a week.

    Try my shoes on for size. Agree wholeheartedly with the above in every way. And, live in DC so also root for the hapless Nats (when they're not facing the Reds).

    There ya go. You actually have it easy if you see it like that, eh?

    guessing they're keeping Broxton in there until his ERA reaches 100
    There are 3 guarantees in life; death, taxes, and the leadoff walk coming around to score.
